More on sleeping the weight off

kw: dieting, news, sleep

A bit more accurate information has been released about the Annals of Internal Medicine article regarding sleep deprivation and weight/fat loss. The study is termed a "crossover" study, meaning some participants slept the longer hours the first weeks and the others did so the latter weeks. That was not made clear in earlier news items. This is a key point, because it removes one possible cause of confusion. Please see my post this morning for the rest of what I said about it.
